# Journal of International Economics (journal-of-international-economics)

## Journal positioning

The Journal of International Economics (JIE) is the field flagship for both international trade and international macro/finance, publishing the most consequential theory and empirics on the international economy. The paper that wins here advances how the field understands trade flows, gains from trade, exchange rates, capital flows, or global imbalances — through a quantitative trade model, an open-economy macro model, or a credibly identified empirical study. The readership spans trade and open-economy macro economists, so the contribution must matter to one of those communities, not merely apply a familiar method to international data.

This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the publisher's own site or submission system.

## When to trigger

- The author names JIE (or a top international outlet) as the target venue.
- A paper studies trade, exchange rates, or capital flows and the author is choosing among international and general/field venues.
- An applied or theory paper needs re-framing so the international mechanism — trade gains, transmission, openness — is the contribution.
- The author needs this venue's desk-reject risks and a credible trade / international-macro alternative list before submitting.
